Not sure if this would even be the appropriate location to post this but...

Has anyone ever driven their jeep through the forest roads to get to the
San Bernardino National Forest hot springs?

Yepper ~~~ Been a few years, but use to do 3N14 from FawnSkin (up in Big Bear) down to Deep Creek, Silverwood, Cleghorn and Victorville / Hesperia all the time.
And I'd get to Big Bear via Hwy 38 from San Bernardino / Mentone area. It would be
just one big loop, but a Great Day trip. The San Bernardino Mtns. are just FULL of
fantastic Trails. Stop at a Ranger Station and ask for a Map, they were free, and
updated yearly.
I say a few years now because I now live in Colorado, which is also GREAT.

It's not BAD at all, and can be done in a compleatly Stock Jeep with NO PROBLEMS.

Not sure if this helps because I haven't heard of the Forest Hot Springs or Deep Creek Hot Springs. Trails in the links I created below pass through Deep Creek. If you have any week days you can go, I need to use some vacation time. I'll be happy to join you for a day run up there. Just send me a PM. Lots of fun trails in the Big Bear/Arrowhead area.

I've done white mountain and dishpan many times on a Honda 400ex quad. I was always nervous to take my old 87 jeep on them. I've watched many vehicles go up them without any problem, I've also seen a few guys that wished they hadn't.

I think white mountain is a tougher trail then dishpan. That huge monster straight up right before the lookout area is intense, seeing all them clutch levers on the way up makes me smile.

I heard malcom smith cut that trail in first?????

Maybe we can get a group together to hit a few of these trails late April or early May. I have a bunch of trail locations marked on EveryTrail. If you go to EveryTrail - Travel Community, iPhone Guides for Sightseeing, Hiking, Walking Tours and more, just type rjd949oc in the search field and click the link next to my picture to pull them up.[/QUOTE]


Nice vid and some Jimmy for the tunes! Yeah, we can def get a group together for April / My...that is real cold weather to have to spot in..:eek:
